For some reason I haven't gotten an activation email yet to log in. It said it could take a few days so maybe thats what im waiting on. Hopefully so.
Check your spam. Looked for mine all day when I thought to check there.

Saw this initially on the FB group and thought it was too good to be true. Waiting for time this weekend to sit and get this installed. Even Alpha it can't be worse then normal Sync issues lol.

Jailbreak is very timing dependent. I would recommend you hook up a battery charger (if you don't want to keep the engine running) and use Forcan to initiate the reboot so you can time it better. I used Forscan Lite with my iphone. Still took 10 tries for me.

Not a matter of couldn't but that they just didn't want to. The crazy thing is, all of the code to do "fullscreen" projection is already part of the binaries they included in Sync!
I think the industry term is "we will fix it in version 2"....... It also didn't help Sync 3 was DOA when the Explorer was redesigned in 2020

@ilovepancakes How do I get this screen? When I cycle through the different screens, I only see one with three apps at the bottom and the map at the top. I prefer this one because the map is larger, and the two apps at the bottom are smaller.

Btw awesome work! So far I am loving it.

Using my wireless Carplay dongle, I am getting frequent disconnects. The device does not feel warm so am guessing that it doesn't have the processing power needed to handle the full screen map and music active. I went back to wired and all seems fine--maybe less laggy as well. Again, I am blown away by the full screen Apple Maps.

to switch the view use this button in the lower left corner, which changes its icon
